The LAN Network Interface Link screen (#107) in Figure 5-8 “LAN Network Interface Link Screen” is displayed when you press the [Go To LINK] function key at the LAN Network Interface Configuration
screen (Figure 5-3 “LAN Network Interface Configuration
Screen”). It is also displayed when
you type the path name:
@NETXPORT.NI.NIname.LINK
in the command window of any screen and press the [Enter] key, where NIname is a configured
LAN NI.
Use this screen to specify the link name for the NI. The link
name is used by the network transport when establishing connections.
Fields
- Link name
Make sure this is the same link name configured
at the LAN Link Configuration screen (path name LINK). Press the [Save Data] function key to save the link name in the configuration
file. Verify that the link name has been configured by checking
that the Data flag is set to Y.
This screen associates the link data with the LAN network
interface data. The link name is used by the network transport when establishing
connections. The link name can contain as many as eight alphanumeric
characters, and the first character must be alphabetic.
To change an existing link name, enter the new name in the Link name field and press the [Save Data] function key.
